ON 2-CARDINALLY PERMUTABLE GROUPS

In recent years there has been much interest in the study of groups satisfying various permutability conditions (see, for instance, [1], [2] and [3]). More recently, the following condition has been studied: for some , if S is any subset of m elements of a group G, then $$\mid$S^2$\mid$ < m^2$ (where, for subsets A, B of G, AB stands for ${ab; a \in A, b \in B}$).
